Craigar45 Posted November 4, 2009 Share Posted November 4, 2009 Hey all, another round gun noob here. I searched around for a fiber optic front sight for my new 625 V-Comp without any luck. I saw on here there was a guy in OZ selling them a few years back, but it looks like that dried up. I am not above fabricating my own if someone had a replacement to sell me... Factory or otherwise. Anyone out there with a lead? Thanks! It is not the standard patridge front- it has a much bigger dovetail. Here it is with a front sight from Protocall Design.

Tom Mainus Posted November 4, 2009 Share Posted November 4, 2009 I have that same gun. I had my gunsmith make the original front sight into a fiber optic. He drilled a hole all the way through it and then milled out a section of the middle. It works great. Anybody with any machining experience should be able to do this for you.

granderojo Posted November 4, 2009 Share Posted November 4, 2009 You might try Tool Guy who posts on this forum. He makes sights to order for height. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carmoney Posted November 4, 2009 Share Posted November 4, 2009 Craig, the guy from Oz is Mike McCarthy of MSM Industries. I'll PM you his contact info (not sure if it's still good, but it's gotta be worth a try). It's a nice product. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMC Posted November 4, 2009 Share Posted November 4, 2009 Pinnacle made one for me from a stock front. Very nice and quick too! www.pinnacle-guns.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
festus1 Posted November 4, 2009 Share Posted November 4, 2009 S&W has a patridge sight for that gun. It might be easier to make into a fiber optic. Not sure what the number is but I did order one from them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrchapman Posted December 15, 2009 Share Posted December 15, 2009 Do a search on line for a rifle front replacement sight. I replaced mine with a fiber optic rifle replacement sight. You can get different heights. I beleive the dovetail is 3/8. Measure it to be sure. Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
